Allergy Testing

What Happens at Your First Appointment

During your initial visit, Dr. Davis, Dr. Mathur, or one of our physician assistants will review your symptoms and history before recommending the right test for you. For most patients, that means skin testing, completed right here in the office, with results before you leave.

  1. Step 1: Consultation

    We go through your history, symptoms, and what you've already tried

  2. Step 2: Skin Test

    Completed in-office, results in about 15 minutes

  3. Step 3: Review Results

    Your provider goes through what you're reacting to

  4. Step 4: Create Plan

    Tailor treatment options to your allergens and your life

If you're taking oral antihistamines, you'll need to stop 5 to 7 days before skin testing. We'll remind you when you schedule.

Treatment Options

Once We Know What You're Reacting To, We Can Fix It

For some patients, avoiding triggers and taking the right medication is enough. For many, immunotherapy drives real, lasting change. We offer both sublingual (under the tongue) and standard injection therapy. Who wants to stay away from their pet or stop playing soccer because they haven't found the right solution yet?

Children Don't Always Show Allergies The Way Adults Do

Recurring ear infections, a cough that never quite goes away, and always feeling tired can all point to allergies that haven't been identified yet. We see kids of all ages and make the whole process as comfortable as possible.

  • Chronic cough, especially during activity or at night
  • Recurring ear infections or fluid buildup
  • Congestion or mouth breathing that doesn't clear
  • Eczema appearing in the first year of life
  • Fatigue or behavioral changes at school

What Makes Us Different

ENT and allergy in the same visit

Things Patients Want To Know

How long does allergy testing take?

Skin testing has two important phases. You’ll be here for a little over an hour for the test and get immediate results. Remember, if you come in for a consultation with the provider on the same day, this will extend your visit. We'll give you a definitive time estimate when you schedule.

What's the difference between allergy shots and drops?

Both are immunotherapy. They work by gradually building your immune system's tolerance to specific allergens over time. The difference is how they're delivered. Shots are given by injection in our office, while drops are placed under the tongue at home daily. The results are comparable. The right choice depends on your schedule, your comfort with needles, and how well you'd maintain a daily home routine. We'll talk through both with you.

Can my child be tested and treated here?

Yes. We see pediatric allergy patients of all ages. Testing is safe and adapted to be as comfortable as possible for kids. Allergy drops are often the preferred option for younger patients — needle-free and easy to do at home as part of a daily routine.

Do I need a referral to come in?

No referral is required. You can call us directly at (310) 372-0700 or book online. If your primary care physician has recommended an allergy evaluation, we're happy to coordinate with their office as well.

Do you take my insurance?

We accept most major PPO insurance plans. Allergy shots are covered by the majority of plans, and coverage varies by insurer. Our team verifies your coverage before your appointment — no billing surprises.

Southern California weather often doesn't follow traditional seasonal patterns, which can lead to a prolonged allergy season for those with seasonal allergies.

Furthermore, Santa Ana winds, which push dry desert air through the LA Basin each fall, can trigger acute pollen spikes even in patients who otherwise feel well-controlled. Immunotherapy provides durable symptom control despite our unique climate.
